Poems I Like

Here are some poems I like.

RAIN.
BY ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON

The rain is falling all around, It falls on field and tree, It rains on the umbrellas here, And on the ships at sea.

A Good Play

BY ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON

We built a ship upon the stairs

All made of the back-bedroom chairs,

And filled it full of soft pillows

To go a-sailing on the billows.

We took a saw and several nails,

And water in the nursery pails;

And Tom said, "Let us also take

An apple and a slice of cake;"--

Which was enough for Tom and me

To go a-sailing on, till tea.

We sailed along for days and days,

And had the very best of plays;

But Tom fell out and hurt his knee,

So there was no one left but me.

God Bless,
